Zhongshan Circle
Now home to over six million inhabitants and one of China’s largest ports, a walk around the city takes a couple of hours and allows time to feast the eyes on the amazing contrast in archtecture, especially the beautiful buildings around the city’s huge Zhongshan Circle – the heart of DalianThere are hints of ancient Rome and European Gothic, the arched roofs of the Renaissance period and several brooding Russian styled designs. Of course the skyscrapers have found homes here too, but they don’t seem to intrude too much. A novel idea is the giant TV screen erected above the regal Dalian Hotel opposite Zhongshan Cicle, used whenever the city’s popular football team, Dalian Shide play. This team is to China what Man United are to England. The games are shown on the big screen and thousands of football faithful take time out to cher on their lads from the city center. Very festive and very loud.
